Ric Flair and John Cena are tied for the record with 16 world title wins. With Cena announcing his farewell tour for 2025, some fans are wondering whether he could potentially break Ric Flair’s record with another title win before he retires.
Speaking on Busted Open, Ric Flair was asked whether he had a problem with John Cena potentially breaking the world title record. He stated that he wanted it to be Charlotte Flair. But he noted that he would have no problem if John Cena did it.
“The honest to god truth, I think so much personally of John Cena,” Ric Flair said. “He’s one of those really great guys, in my opinion, and I’ve known a few. In a perfect world, it would be my daughter [Charlotte], which I think would be the biggest thing that could ever happen. I told her one time, she didn’t like the comparison, I said, ‘You’d be as famous as Serena Williams if you broke that record. It’s been there for so long.’
“She didn’t like the comparison, but she’s as good an athlete as there is alive today. But if they do it with John, I’d have no problem. I’d be the first one to hit the ring and shake his hand.”
